[PATCH v2] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Initialize unload_event statically

From: Andrea Parri (Microsoft)
Date: Mon Apr 19 2021 - 21:44:21 EST


If a malicious or compromised Hyper-V sends a spurious message of type
CHANNELMSG_UNLOAD_RESPONSE, the function vmbus_unload_response() will
call complete() on an uninitialized event, and cause an oops.

Changes since v1[1]:
